Pillman Christmas 2023

Christmas is here!  It is with deep and sincere appreciation for your friendship that we take a moment to consider what God has given us, and share with you a chronological overview of 2023. January we started out our 2023 year with Anna’s 4th birthday. Anna has started reading and writing with Mommy at home. She measures the success of a day by how many crafts she has completed. March – Gloria turned one in March. Gloria loves to play music and do little skip dances to the music. She is talking in basic sentences, and is convinced she can do anything that her siblings can do. August – Katie celebrated her birthday on our way out to Yellowstone for a Pillman/Salt side reunion. We found out that tenting with 3 kids 4 and under makes for a vigorous expedition.

Farzona joins us as a foreign exchange student from Tajikistan. How many of you

Now at 9 months old, Gloria makes us laugh with her smiles and enthusiasm to join the fun! She is often found wrestling with her brother and sister, and can pretty well hold her own.  Anna (3) continues to be interested in matching clothing and grows her creativity by designing her own crafts. She is learning how to read and write.  Caleb (2) is another enthusiastic motivator, often
